BASELWORLD 2017

Glashütte Original has once again given an impressive performance at Baselworld, thanks to a confident brand presence and sensational new products for the world of watches. The Saxon manufactory presented refreshing new design variations of proven product lines to industry experts at the world's largest watch and jewellery fair.

An emblematic model celebrating 60 years of TUDOR divers’ watches with extraordinary craftsmanship. Enhancing the Black Bay with yellow gold creates a new version named S&G, for Steel & Gold. In this version the lines and proportions of the Black Bay are retained, while the rotating bezel and the winding crown are made from yellow gold.

Haute couture marries structure and embellishment to live happily ever after. This union is at the heart of the Balmain Flamea II. Classical shapes, intricate patterns and harmonious attachments join together to create watches fit to grace the best of look-books.

The Globetrotter reimagines the world-time complication as a modern-day navigational instrument. Just as Arnold & Son’s marine chronometers accompanied early explorers on their journeys – including James Cook to the Pacific Ocean and Sir John Franklin to the icy waters of Northern Canada – the Globetrotter world timer is designed for today’s globetrotting adventurers.

Angelus’s first diver’s watch makes a spectacular debut with a tourbillon escapement and skeletonized movement. The U50 Diver Tourbillon is also equipped with a helium escape valve, making it safe for saturation dives of up to 300 metres.

The robust Premiere sports watch is Albert Riele’s premium collection, representing the defining qualities of the brand. With a multi-function quartz movement, including chronograph, tachymeter, day, date and small seconds, as well as 100-metres water resistant, it is ready for any adventure, from water sports to motorcycle racing.

As a nod to the history of the brand, which has been offering the blue dial colour in its collections ever since the 1960s, the dials of the Black Bay 41 and Black Bay 36 - black hitherto - will now also be available in a new blue version.

Blancpain’s large date mechanism has been a feature of several models in the Villeret Collection. In addition to the enhanced readability due to the large size of the numerals, its design changes the date instantly at midnight without excess energy consumption from the running train of the watch.

The openworked movement on this watch is designed to represent the 10 rays of the star, with the colour matching the lateral inserts of the case and the stitching on the leather strap. A wide choice of colour options is available, but ArtyA will limit production to 99 pieces in each colour.

MeisterSinger makes mechanical watches with one single hand – for people who don’t want to combine two or three readings, but simply keep track of time. The design principles of these timepieces are therefore similar to those of historical instruments – with functional typography and double digits to indicate the hours.

So far, skeletonized timepieces by Aerowatch were intended mainly for men, but now, women with a penchant for mechanical watches can look forward to a decidedly feminine creation. Especially for them, Aerowatch presents the Renaissance Squelette Dame: it is absolutely on par with the masculine version.

These watches are not edible, even when they share their name with the classic French pastry and make a delicious impression. The NOMOS Petit Four series consists of four new Tetra versions that promise the most delightful wrists: Tetra Matcha, Azure, Pearl, and Grenadine.

The Blancpain flying tourbillon, produced in-house as are all Blancpain movements, has been an integral part of the traditional watchmaking scene for nearly three decades. This construction offers an unsurpassed view of the tourbillon’s key components, unobstructed by the upper bridge featured in conventional tourbillon designs.

The places that we visit leave unforgettable impressions on our mind. The many tastes of foreign cuisine leave us tingling for more, while the touch of exquisite silk imprints exotic tenderness on our skin.

The enduring classic design of the Harmony collection is expressed with a clean, tone-on-tone dial and a clarity of form that recalls the pure alpine skies. While the small seconds dial and chronograph counter are placed at 6 o’clock and between 9 and 11 o’clock on the dial, the moon phase indicator takes a unique position between 1 and 2 o’clock.

The Voutilainen 217QRS features a wide range of uniquely-Voutilainen stylistic elements both in its exterior as well as its movement design. Its 39 millimeters-wide and 11.5 millimeters-thick case is crafted from platinum, white gold or rose gold to create extremely limited series of just 10 pieces in each material.

NOMOS Glashütte is presenting a further in-house built caliber at Baselworld 2018: neomatik date (DUW 6101). The watchmaking company has equipped three NOMOS icons—Tangente, Orion, and Ludwig—with this new caliber and created a tailor-made date design for each. It is not only aesthetically innovative; it can also be set both forwards and backwards quickly and easily.

Time flies, so the Balmain de Balmain II Mini collection puts its heart and soul into capturing the moments. These Swiss made timepieces are about treasuring the essentials. They draw on an extensive selection of details that make a difference. There are strong sporty statements, right through to elegant expressions of femininity with a playful twist. It’s time to celebrate the multi-faceted lifestyles of twenty-first century women.

Breguet is enriching its new generation of Marine watches with a creation housing no less than three horological complications. In addition to an alarm, the Marine Alarme Musicale 5547 displays a second time zone as well as the date.

The family-owned Aerowatch company, headquartered in Switzerland's Jura region, was founded in La Chaux-de-Fonds in 1910. Leveraging its experience and creative design talents, Aerowatch has intensified its focus on the art of skeletonization. The "1942 Lady Squelette" enriches the company's collection of ladies' watches and addresses the growing demand for skeletonized timepieces.

The Black Bay Fifty-Eight is named after the year in which the first TUDOR divers’ watch, waterproof to 200 metres, the reference 7924, dubbed the “Big Crown”, was introduced. Among other aesthetic allusions to this famous historic watch, this model has a 39 mm diameter case, in keeping with the characteristic proportions of the 1950s.

NOMOS Glashütte is presenting a new sporty automatic watch with a date at Baselworld 2018. Equipped with the new, innovative NOMOS neomatik date caliber (DUW 6101), this self-assured timepiece also introduces a completely new look: Werner Aisslinger, the world-renowned product designer, has designed the model in collaboration with NOMOS Glashütte. Its name is Autobahn.

HUBLOT’s R&D department and Metallurgy & Materials laboratory has developed a new process of creating bright colored ceramic. It took Hublot four years to develop and industrialize the process, which involves using heat and pressure in a way that sinters the ceramic without burning the pigments.

ArtyA is proud to present an exceptional masterpiece entirely hand made from the case (designed by Yvan Arpa and engraved by Bram Ramon) to the dial, (hand crafted in mother-of-pearl in the purest Ott-Chill’s thousand-year-old tradition) and the movement, ArtyA’s own manufacture tourbillon.

A distinguished sporting milestone for this 1963 icon of the track. The TAG Heuer Carrera celebrated its half-century with abandon, eyes on the horizon and pedal to the metal. This automotive chronograph still clearly predominates in the annals of watchmaking success stories.

A champion among sports watches, the Active watch is ready for any challenge. Reach for an Active watch and you’re choosing a lifestyle in which the stakes are high, and there are no half-measures. The robust, 316L case is water resistant to 100 metres, which makes it ideal for water sports.

MeisterSinger builds timepieces for people who don’t need to count the seconds in everyday life. They simply need a watch that helps them keep track of time – whatever the situation. With the Metris, MeisterSinger presents a new model that sticks with you wherever you go – because it is so robust, easy to read, and easily handles a refreshing swim in a lake, but with its slender case, still looks great when teamed with a striped sweater.

Every detail of this gentleman’s watch is carefully considered and executed to reflect the Albert Riele standard of elegance and taste. The design reflects a sense of harmony, like a masterful performance of your favourite piece of music.

Abraham-Louis Breguet was the brains behind countless inventions in the watchmaking world. In addition to the tourbillon and the pare-chute shock protection device, to mention only two, we also owe to him the split-seconds chronograph, a complication that will soon be celebrating two centuries of existence.

As if it were a new species, the "Butterfly" emerges from its cocoon and spreads its wings, ready to rise from the fountain of youth. The butterfly theme that characterizes this feminine collection represents strong symbols such as endless rejuvenation, grace, and joy.

The signature of traditional watchmaking artistry that has always characterized the family-owned Aerowatch company harmoniously comes to the fore in the 1942 Petite Seconde model. The guilloched dial underscores the prominence of the Roman numerals and pays tribute to more than a century of horological artisanship.

Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier, a manufacture specialized in the production of high-end mechanical movements, adds a new calibre to its wide range of movements. For Baselworld 2018, Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier unveils a high-performance automatic column wheel chronograph, the Seed VMF 6710.

Classicism and refinement are the watchwords of the new Villeret Grande Date Jour Rétrograde, reasserting Blancpain’s attachment to authentic horological values. The signature aesthetics of the collection are the double stepped (double pomme) bezel, thin profile, as well as elegant understated hands and indexes.

ArtyA has developed its own COSC-certified movement “ArtyA Aion”, to be used in its Son of Earth, Son of a Gun and Son of Art collections. The chronometer-rated automatic movement features a rose gold rotor and finishes that include côtes de Genève, spotting and snailing.

In 2017, Breguet gave a new face to its Marine line through a revamped aesthetic style, combining a sense of modernity and dynamism: an original bracelet lug, reworked fluting, as well as a crown surrounded by a wave decor and adorned with a wider “B.”

First launched in 1957, the Superocean was created for professional divers, but it quickly found favor on the amateur diving scene and among scuba enthusiasts. Breitling preserved the spirit of the original model with the Superocean Héritage line, which blends a timeless look with cutting-edge technology.

A spring breeze is blowing through Harry Winston. Novel color combinations and fresh design elements are captivating a new generation of women who value not only the everyday practicality of a trusted timepiece but also the extraordinary diamonds that define Harry Winston’s iconic jewelry collections.

The SCHWARZ ETIENNE Roswell 08 is a truly unique-looking watch that merges vibrant aesthetics with a high-tech manufacture movement and a special dial layout. Proudly displayed to the left of the dial is SCHWARZ ETIENNE’s innovative date mechanism where the date operates through a drive system that is equipped with a quick date setting feature as well as a safety mechanism.

To create the EPOS 3435 Verso, the engineers of EPOS have taken the historical and renowned ETA 6497 hand-wound caliber and modified in a way so that it now exposes all wonders of a mechanical caliber on the dial side of the timepiece.

Beginning with the timeless shape of a traditional Swiss timepiece, the Genie Goddess Series introduces elegant aesthetics from the natural world in this new lady’s watch collection. Enhanced with a shimmering mother-of-pearl dial and sparkling with applied Swarovski crystal hour markers and bezel decoration, Genie also includes subtle design elements meant to suggest floral themes.

With its "Héritage Slim" Automatic collection, Aerowatch joins the ranks of watchmaking companies that are capable of crafting ultra-thin timepieces. Following the fall and winter fashion trend which showcases 1980s chic, the "Héritage Slim" is an essential accessory for style-conscious individuals.

MeisterSinger makes mechanical watches for people who know just what is important to them – people who don’t constantly want to count the seconds, for instance – and want the things they surround themselves with to be smartly and meticulously designed.

So far, skeletonized timepieces by Aerowatch were intended mainly for men, but now, women with a penchant for mechanical watches can look forward to a decidedly feminine creation. Especially for them, Aerowatch presents the Renaissance Squelette Dame: it is absolutely on par with the masculine version.
